Carrie,

You seem to know your own mind and what is helping you and what isn't. It would be interesting to see what he would say if you talked it out with him and explained your reasons and your conclusion. I have not often actually left a therapy session feeling better either, and I have just thought it was because change takes longer and more work on your own for real change to happen, but sometimes I have left feeling better. I'd like to know how that is for most people. But if you feel that any T is not helping you, it doesn't have to mean that they are not a good T, or negate any help that you have gotten from them in the past. Maybe they just are not what you need right now. It is always your choice to continue with them or not. I think it's great that you can recognize what you need. Have you seen the other T any more? She sounded promising?
